I the transformation of the hydrant to the lantern..I think that the lighting is vexceptional especially on the hand and in and on the lantern itself. Also the blue color scheme, setting and the red lantern combine to create a beautiful mood and and image

You do beautiful work Claf. You really maximized the visual quality on this image in that it's so vibrant....so can almost reach in & touch it. The lighting you created is no less than superb.

Thanks everyone, especially for your sweet comments! I'm very happy if you like it! I'm always trying to hold the scales between using the maximum of the original source and doing a major change of theme or mood. Yes, I had fun to make this one!
